4tb HDD

I am considering a new iMac 21.5 but need a much bigger hard drive. Can I get a 4 TB INTERNAL drive? If not what is the biggest it can go?

1TB ATA drive or Fusion drive appears to be the max you can purchase for an internal drive when customizing a 21.5" or 27" iMac online at Apple. The iMac Pro can be special ordered with a 4TB internal drive.


You can add whatever you wish externally of course though I would double-check with Apple prior to purchasing the externals with exact drive sizes and how you are going to use them (OS storage, data file storage, etc) for limitations.
